Calculating Water needed to carve the Rio Grande Valley Length Rio Grande: 3034 km Pecos R.: 1183 km Total: 4217 km Width 5 km, 5 km, 2 km, 3 km, 2 km, 3 km, 2 km, 2 km, 1 km, 0.5 km, 0.5 km, 0.5 km Average: 2.15 km Depth Let's say 200 m How Much Water? Volume = length x width x height Volume of Rio Grande and tributary: 4217 km x 2.15 km x 0.2 km = 1813 km3 If we assume we needed 100 km3 of water to erode away each km3 of the land, then we get a total of 181,300 km3 of water.
